Following Edmund's death on 30 November, Cnut ascends to the throne as the sole king of England. Personal union formed between Denmark and England under Danish hegemony. |
| 1026 | 1026 | Battle of Helgeå | Kingdom of England Canute the Great | Sweden Norway Anund Jacob Olaf II of Norway | Victory The Swedish and Norwegian attack to conquer Denmark while Canute is busy in England fails and Canute retains power Norway becomes a part of the North Sea empire and parts or the whole of Sweden are conquered by troops from England and Denmark including the capital, Gamla Uppsala Olaf II of Norway is forced into exile in Kievan Rus. Most of the Swedish forces, however, remain intact. The later invasion of Sweden seems to have ended badly, and in Anglo-Saxon sources the battle is described as a Swedish victory, and also that there was a great loss of English lives, and that the Swedes were in possession of the Battlefield. Sweden would continue to support Norwegian rebels loyal to Olaf II under the whole of Canute's reign. Most forces in the Battle of Stiklestad consisted of Swedes and the eventual Swedish support for Norwegian rebels would lead to the disintegration of the North Sea Empire and the Personal Union between Denmark and Norway. |

William the Conqueror paid Sweyn and his Danish fleet to go home, but the remaining rebels refused to meet him in battle, and he decided to starve them out by laying waste to the northern shires using scorched earth tactics. The Norman campaign to reconquer Northern England resulted in a genocide against the people living there. |
